Banned organisation Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) spokesman Shahidullah Shahid has claimed that security forces' 'secret' centres established in various parts of the country including Balochistan, KPK, FATA are a reality and no one can deny that the fact.
Shahidullah Shahid maintained the government had been providing a legal cover to all these centres and their role through "Pakistan Protection Ordinance"; however, Defence Minister Khwaja Asif should inform the nation about the number of missing people who have been presented in courts so far. The TTP spokesman stated it seems either the Defence minister wanted to sabotage peace process on the direction of foreign powers or the government was confused about the process. He said the Taliban had given names of some unarmed prisoners to its committee as evidence, adding that more names would be given if the investigation committee took the matter seriously.
